Health Benefits of Tai Chi and Qigong | Dr. Denise Nagel
Balance... lo único que en la naturaleza sana es evidente, no más.
Balance... lo único que en la naturaleza sana es evidente, no más.
I do Qigong or Tai Chi every day. I think of it as medicine, too. Can I say for sure that it has worked for me? Not with a double blind study, but I do believe that my investigations have led me to a plan which has helped me and maybe could help you, too. At my last visit my rheumatologist told me that the Tai Chi and Qigong have probably helped my bone density stabilize at osteopenia. Let me tell you some of what I have learned through my experience.
Calming the mind and calming the body allows healing. Strengthening the muscles through simple postures and movements prevents falls. Moving with flow and gentle weight bearing helps balance and can positively impact bone density. Achieving a relaxed state of the mind reduces stress. These are some of the simple premises that underlie the health benefits of Qigong and Tai Chi.
My teacher, Dr. Ming Wu, introduces tai chi walking during the first beginning tai chi class because he believes it is much simpler to learn and done properly achieves all of the benefits of a much more complicated tai chi form.
Qigong is an ancient Chinese health care system that integrates physical postures, breathing techniques and focused intention to open blockages in the body based on the same meridian system used in acupuncture. The movements are fairly easy to learn and allow access to everyone. To begin to benefit from Qigong you do not have to be fit, you don't have to be flexible; you don't even have to be able to stand up. The exercises can be modified for almost anyone with patience that wants to learn.
Sometimes Qigong and Tai Chi are called a moving meditation in which the mind and body are led to a state of balance and equilibrium also known as homeostasis. AHarvard medical publication said it should also be called "moving medication." The advantages of improving strength, flexibility and balance are pretty obvious but the advantages of peace that comes from the moving flowing meditative aspect of Qigong and Tai Chi are equally important.
When the body is in a state of balance all the systems work better.

Pronounced "chee-gung," qigong is a powerful mind-body practice, says Kevin Chen, an associate professor at the University of Maryland School of Medicine's Center for Integrative Medicine and Dworkin's qigong instructor.
"Regular practice of qigong can help patients in many ways," he says. "It can improve energy and strength, balance the autonomic nervous system, improve coping skills, improve mood and, improve health and vitality."
